John R Lyons Memorial Tournament January 5 & 6, 2008 : Warm temperatures welcomed the crowd of spectators to the Annual John R Lyons Memorial Tournament on Sunday January 6.  With almost 100 competitors total on our 4 jumps, the tournament started with the 46M hill - we  worried about the melting inrun, but it held up for 1 trial ride and 2 competition jumps. Moving onto 30M hill, then the 20M down in the woods we saw some great competition. The 10M brought alot of entertainment to the crowd!!!  
Everyone had a fabulous weekend and it was great to see all the skiers and spectators make it out to the St Paul Ski Club.
